Hopefully the North Koreans don’t bomb Concord before Ivan has got us playing finals football.

Maybe it has nothing to do with Japan but sometimes I wonder if they want revenge against Japan for their long and brutal occupation of Korea.

I don’t think it’s just Japan they hate. I think they hate 95% of the world.
They are similar to Manly.

Maybe I’m being a little harsh on Manly there.

I don’t think the ordinary people there hate they don’t have a say, it is a dictatorship. Many want to escape which is why China will not bring the regime down - she does not want millions of refugees across the border as already cops a lot.

Decades ago Manly had a lot of working class folk - don’t know if still true or not. I just remembered I saved a plumpish girl in the surf there - was a hard slog.

The Off Season
A time of the year we all hate , No Footy
But I think this year and into early next year we will get a fair bit from the club , it will be exciting times ahead for Ivan and the new look team , our club will be or should plaster the Web site with info and photos of all the new players , interviews , updates , we will have plenty to read I think and it will be all positive , if Ivan gets our guys excited about his plans and they all get on board with it we can give this comp,a shake next season , I’m not saying we win the comp but we will be very competative , Ivan has made very smart purchases of playing stock , competition for spots will be hot , we will be fitter , Stronger than our start this year , we looked burnt out or just unfit .
We have heard all the crap before about this year we will improve and so on , But this coming season will be different , Ivan Is Different to all the other coaches of late , I’m expecting a very new look team with a completely different Attitude , I think he will Harden us up and be a defensive hard hitting team with a Attack that comes from grinding the opposition into the ground then running over the top of them .
Top 8 with out doubt for me
